[Elecraft] K3S vs. K3

Seems too early, Salvo, given it was announced two 
days ago on Thurs. However, it may be that Rob 
Sherwood has, or soon will have, a K3S and will be 
able to add it to his table here 
http://www.sherweng.com/table.html  If and when 
that happens, I'm sure we'll read about it here :-)

Likely once the Elecraft crew has returned from 
Dayton we'll learn more. I suspect the major 
performance improvement is from the new 
synthesizer, which many of us have already 
retrofitted into our K3s (lower case S!): See line 
2 vs. line 6 on Rob's table.

73, Phil W7OX
